We would suggest that you have completed our or an Intermediate Excel course somewhere else before attending this one to make sure you get the most out of the day.

Comments and Testimonials

Snow Business testimonial – working alongside staff in Excel

The session was very well structured with a good combination of theory and practical work. It was very useful to do individual examples of each task and the course notes are thorough without being confusing. John was a great teacher and catered for all knowledge levels. The pace of the day was great, at no point did we feel John was moving on too quickly but the sessions didn’t ‘drag’.
